Long Walk Out of the Woods
A Physician's Story of Addiction, Depression, Hope & Recovery
Author: Adam B. Hill, MD
Overview
In this searing and deeply personal memoir, Dr. Adam B. Hill, a respected pediatric oncologist and palliative care physician, pulls back the curtain on the hidden epidemic of physician burnout, depression, and addiction. Despite a career devoted to healing others, Dr. Hill secretly struggled with profound despair, alcohol dependence, and active suicidal planning.
While in recovery, tragedy struck again when a colleague died by suicide—underscoring the culture of silence, stigma, and broken systems that continue to fail medical professionals. Through raw honesty, Dr. Hill shares his journey into the darkest corners of his mind and the long, often painful path to recovery.
Long Walk Out of the Woods is not only a courageous personal narrative but also a call to action: to dismantle stigma, to build compassionate systems of support, and to reimagine how we care for those who dedicate their lives to caring for us.
